ICC Men's ODI Team 2021: No Indian in Babar-led side

Much like ICC's Men's T20I Team of the Year, Indian players have failed to make the cut for the ODI Team of 2021 as well. Babar Azam, who enjoyed a stellar run in 2021, has been named as the skipper. Fakhar Zaman is another representation from Pakistan in ICC's ODI XI. The team also has two players from Sri Lanka and three from Bangladesh.

Context
Why does it matter?
  • Two South African players have also been named in the ICC's Team of the Year in Janneman Malan and Rassie van der Dussen.
  • Ireland's Paul Stirling and Simi Singh are also part of the team.
  • However, ICC's ODI XI has no representation from the reigning fifty overs world champions England.
  • Australian and New Zealand players have also failed to make the cut.
